Somehow the biggest item on the list survived the weekend. The Saints never addressed cornerback, and it is the kind of gap that lingers. Call it a sensible B-, earned the boring way.

Every board in the league had Grant lower, and that gap is the story. Job largely done: edge rusher settled and 2 of 8 of the wish list covered. Building through the lines is a philosophy, and they stuck to it.

Solid rather than spectacular, and there is nothing wrong with that.
